Go for these type of useless records and make records of conceding goals in galore in defeat. Good luck to team green. Even to beat China is becoming extreme difficulty now a days forget about top teams.
Proud of them! thats the world record I am sure they have been practising for decades! Well done. Thanks to ET for such a wonderful piece of info (!)
Congrats to Pakistan Hockey but still sad for losing to India by 3-1. I cannot understand why coaches are not working on defense, it's very weak. I think our team is on number one spot for conceding most goals.
